I strongly believe that the capitalization of Ethereum can approach BTC. Of the top platforms, I see only Ethereum being the most serious about keeping the blockchain's core value of decentralization. When Vitalik solves the gas fee problem, we will see Ethereum reach the development it should have.
Ethereum have good potential, there is no doubt about this. The problem however is when will the issues plaguing ethereum network will be solved. There have been a lots of promises unending about how ethereum network will scale and bring about the solutions it's users are clamouring for. Something need to be done urgently about fee on ethereum network!
I think if Ethereum doesn't have these problems right now, do we even need to talk about it dying? Well, I also hope the dev team will solve this problem even faster. I still concretize my beliefs by buying more when I see a good price.
